My AMD FX-8320. This chip is just ridiculous for x264 performance. Rendering video is just so fast.

Current rig: AMD Piledriver fx-8320 OC'd to 4.9ghz on 1.45v vcore | Asus Sabertooth 990fx r2 board | Gigabyte 7950 W3x| 8GB Corsair XMS3 1333mhz | 240GB OCZ Agility 3 SSD

I don't why but my earphones. I use them like 90% of the time over my Siberia V2's but that's not to say my Siberia V2's sound bad or uncomfortable, it's just that I don't like bulkiness of headsets/headphones.

 

 

The best part of it is that it was the cheapest among all of my peripherals and parts.

*Whiny voice* 

But I hate the  V2's, they just sound so bad to me.

Bueno, I love my Gigabyte 660. Nice and quiet over the raging storm that is my poor power supply.

I guess the graphics card. It can look awesome (msi twin frozr, gtx titan) and the raw power of it is very noticeable while gaming.

Intel i7-870  //  MSI GTX 670 PE       ///       Intel i7-4500U  //  GT720M

Yes I can see your point but without a CPU cooler, the CPU would overheat and thus not work.However, you don't need a case to run a pc, you can use anything to build it on. But ok I understand:)

Mine is my Cherry MX Blue CM Storm Trigger Mechanical Keyboard. I love it and can not use membrane keyboards because of it.

Its funny, I have been using my Z60 so long that I can't use the other keyboards because I don't press the keys enough.

Ahh I need to pull out my old technics amp from the garage, I just don't have any decent bookshelf speakers for it yet!

My favorite component thus far is probably one of my servers, they're just so beast.

Twin Frozr GTX560Ti 2GB OC......Everything else in my build is either Corsair or ASUS, apart from my drives (Seagate/Samsung).

Had to go with the Twin Frozr though, it was just so freaking cool looking.

My DT770 pro 250's! I wear them for around 4 hours a day and they sound so good! Paired with an STX

Good headphones, bad sound card, Schiit stack is miles better.

Not a fan of Twin Frozr, or MSI in general. Though I do concur, the cooler looks very nice.

I got a 2700K (pretty good imo), and an ASUS P8-Z77 V Pro (it's ok, wish I went with an ROG board doe) and my beloved Msi Twin Frozr III GTX 680 :D

Not going to condemn you, or your purchase, just speaking freely. And maybe if you are  intellectual that lets other people have their own structured opinion. I hate Asus motherboards, and every Twin Frorz I've worked with has died in under a year. Opinion stated, let the hate begin.
